i’m probably truly never get back to crashing tide

Taijutsu sucks. I want to die. Everything can eat my ass.

Moving from the Land of Song’s Sun Crane Style into the far more frenetic Moon-Walking Water one favoured by Lightning proved that I was a goddamn hack who should have kept up her yoga classes. Yes, the sharingan had made learning it easy but fuck if it wasn’t hard on the joints. The recall and fluidity of the motions was only as good as my personal understanding and flexibility. I was about 50-50 on both and positively dying.

Not that the kid cared. “When can I learn those?”

“Thirteen.” I dropped low to stretch out my hip and then returned to practicing forcing chakra the opposite direction of my movements. It was sticky and sluggish but there was no way to get better other than to just keep going. “You can learn the lighter forms the hard way but until you start puberty the muscle mass necessary won’t be there.”

“I thought you didn’t fight.”

I did fight. Very close range or very long. I was a sitting duck otherwise. Dropping into a slightly messy Pigeon Pose I waved him forward. “You’re never going to have as much muscle mass as the Inuzuka or the Hyuuga. It may not seem like it but they build ‘em big. Just be glad you won’t have to fist fight a Senju.” Oh wait. He might have to fist fight a Senju. “And if you do, play dirty because they’re all muscle.”

“The Senju are dead.”

“The Senju have taken a long sabbatical from being decent contributing members of society. Follow me.” I stretched. Welcomed the sun. Threw in some warriors. Then went into the opening moves of Fire Over Air. In the manga learning the Great Fireball technique conveyed adulthood. In this splinter reality I learned that the Uchiha had spent six centuries or so developing specific fighting styles to fight every alignment. Mastering the opening sequences of those made you an adult. It made sense given what out bloodline could do and if it was complete it would go some way to explaining Itachi’s complete OP-ness. Fire Over Air I did every day because it forced me to use an element I was great at to control one I was abysmal with.

Sasuke followed my physical position to a t. Legs in Warrior pose, hands switching between Bird and Tiger. The trick was to feel the moment where one nature became another and to force the power down smothering the emerging chakra. This was stop one of oh, about a thousand.

I could feel the switch-dampen-switch happen between my hands. The tiny release of it was easy to control and not uncomfortable. Sasuke followed. I could almost feel his frustration with it.

“Fire Over Air is one of the harder forms. We’ll try Fire Over Water in a second.”

“Fire Over what?”

“This form. It’s one of the Four Pillars of Suppression. Fire Over Air. Fire Over Water. Fire Over Earth. Fire Over Lightning. You start here with the basic release signs so you can learn how fire affects every release and over time you add steps. At the end you’re supposed to be like Uchiha Masaru, able to stop any technique with his will and a hand.” It also made using acquired jutsu easier.

“Why are we standing like this.”

“Stand up straight and try again.”

He did. The second he went from Bird to Tiger a gust of air spun up and blasted his hands apart. “Why?”

“Grounding.” I changed my feet and dropped weight into them. “This position is used a lot in Earth and Air techniques -the really old school kind that’s more like dancing than brawling. The part of you that is Earth aligned automatically grounds the rest of you and disperses volatile energy.”

He frowned at his stinging hands. “I don’t have an Earth alignment.”

“Yeah you do.” I peacefully moved to Half Moon to do the fourth sequence of Fire Over Lightning. “Chakra exists as the physical manifestation of our spirit in space. It doesn’t follow logic very well. Hashirama, unhelpful genius that he sometimes was, invented a universal hand sign language that we use in Konoha. It gets rid of a lot of the hassle in remembering foot positions.” Move to Fire Over Earth in Crescent pose. “Before that there were variations in how each Clan and people performed any given jutsu. Our ancestors probably started this style to try and understand it.” Fire Over Water was a pain to transition to. All of it’s lower body movements were fierce and space consuming. I flowed down into one of it’s ending poses, a simple cross legged seat.

“I don’t know any of this.”

He wouldn’t. “I got stationed with older kin a lot during the war. We traded secrets.” My mother taught me Fire over Lightning but it was the only one she ever learnt all the way through. I had the basic sets of all of them but like her I only learnt Fire Over Water all the way to the end.

“So you’re going to teach me.”

“The basics. Most everyone only learnt the one.”

“I need to know all of them.”

I backtracked over the conversation, found the flaw and chastised myself. “It isn’t exactly like Great Uncle Masaru’s technique. For one he had Fuu Dog summons and god knows that scroll has been lost for awhile. It’s not a one shot.”

“Teach me.” He screwed up his little hand. “I need to know.”

Well. This is on me, then. “Fine. I can teach you the first five sequences of all of them and twenty four of Fire Over Lightning. I know all forty four of Fire Over Water but I will not show you more than the twenty ninth without the sharingan.”

He blanched.

“Kid,” I said laughing. “We’ve had six hundred years to obsess. Cousin Sho needed about twenty days to let his thing for a Akimichi girl get all of us banned for life.”

A slash of white. A small grin. “That was funny.”

That was last year, I recalled. “Yeah. It was. If you’re betting on your brother knowing it, yeah, he probably does. It’s useful and we’re obsessive. If you think-”

“I just wanna know.” He replied in a much shyer, smaller voice.

I replayed the conversation again.

“Okay.” Considering it through the prism of six hundred unbroken years of family. “Okay. But if I decide not to show you something it’s a medical decision. We’ve defanged a lot of these but they’re primarily analysis positions for fully trained shinobi with the sharingan. They’re combative, like you saw with the first move. You only work with higher levels of less stable energy as we go.”

Not that he’d ever know it but one of the main reasons, after the police and the eye stealing and the whole blood feud, that the Uchiha hated Tobirama was that he’d rendered large parts of the Pillar style obsolete by just mashing together new techniques faster than we could account for them. And then there was the Uzumaki clan throwing in some seals to just really fuck it all up. Certain strains of the sharingan -Madara’s, Itachi’s, Sasuke’s- had a hard on for sealing jutsu. Other’s -me, everyone else- got a horrible sense of vertigo if we tried to copy Uzumaki seals.

Deviated Paths: Jericho Part 2

Chapter 2: Hank

Previous: 1

Next: 3

Get ready for some Hank & Connor hurt/comfort. Dad!Hank is best Hank imo.

For the first time in his short existence, Connor had no objective. His life had always been filled with prompts and commands, small guidance to lead him through life and to help him complete his mission. Now, it was just a blank screen. Even his warning signals had gone away. He felt the cold metal of Jericho under his hands and the blinding hot stares of the other androids in the room on his back. Had he deviated? They got what they wanted in the end, there was no way that he could go back to Cyberlife and tell them about Jericho nor was there any way for him to rejoin the police force for the remainder of the deviancy cases.

He was a deviant now, no matter how much he didn’t want to be. Connor turned and looked at the faces of the androids that had done this to him. Without saying anything, he grabbed his beanie off of the floor and tugged it back onto his head, securing it low down to where it covered where his LED should have been. Shakily, he pushed himself up off of the floor, swaying as he stood on his feet. Everything felt off-kilter like somebody had gone in and ripped around in his wires. The others were looking at him expectantly.

Like deviating had somehow changed him in a drastic way. Perhaps it had, because before he was thinking he said, “they’re going to attack Jericho.”

---

Connor used their confusion and panic to slip out the back and away from the ship. He didn’t owe them anything, and he had done his best to warn them of the attack. If they were smart, they would take this time to evacuate and probably destroy the ship. It was safer to relocate somewhere else that didn’t have their name painted on the side like a flashing beacon anyway.

He didn’t know what to do next. Checking the HUD again, and there were still no messages. Cyberlife hadn’t tried to contact him. Granted, they wouldn’t really be able to then but still. Did they know he had gone deviant yet? Amanda or one of the others would have probably tried to message him about his progress by now. Or, they would be doing so shortly. Maybe they thought that he was going to die when the attacks happened…

Was that what they had planned?

All that Connor knew was that he felt a bone-deep tiredness and needed to sleep go into stasis mode. There weren’t many places he could go to do this, but he bet that he could probably go and see the Lieutenant.

Winter as a deviant was a lot harsher than winter as a machine. It was very unpleasant and made Connor’s movements sluggish. Still no objectives, but there was a new warning across his HUD.

「Warning: LOW TEMPERATURES, SEEK WARMTH」

「Warning: LOW POWER, AUTOMATIC STASIS IN 00:03:40:10」

He had around four hours until his body naturally shut down and would force him to go into stasis. How much power had he drained? Checking his status, it showed that he had around a 4% charge. His distress and his processors running rapidly had almost completely depleted his stored energy. What would have happened if he had gone into stasis before telling Markus and the others about the attack? They all surely would have died at that point, and the rebellion would have been finished. Either way, Cyberlife would have won and Connor would have been killed in the process.

It was an uncomfortable feeling in the pit of his stomach. No matter the circumstances, if he hadn’t deviated and told them about the attack, both himself and the entirety of the android revolution would have been destroyed in one fell swoop. It was a bit surreal. The consequences of his actions were unintentionally saving his life, and the lives of all the other androids on the ship, if they had bothered to evacuate. Who was on the boat exactly? He hadn’t had the time to scan all of the faces. Were they all non-violent, as Markus claimed to be? Is that why he had never heard of them before?

Connor didn’t have time to think about that right now though. He needed to get to the Lieutenant's house unless he wanted to go into unprompted stasis on the cold streets of Detroit. His body would fully shut down if that happened.

---

Connor had the automated taxi drop him off about three blocks from the Lieutenant's. He wanted to make it harder for them to track his movements (though, since he deviated his trackers should be useless). Besides, he had warmed up a bit in the taxi so his biocomponents weren’t at a critical level anymore. He also had about two and a half hours until he went into unprompted stasis.

Connor was trying to think of things to say on the walk over to Lieutenant Anderson’s house. How was he supposed to explain what happened? He would surely have questions for the android. This new emotion, which he cataloged away, made him feel like maybe he should try to find somewhere else to go into stasis. That wasn’t really an option, though, as it was late and he couldn’t risk shutting down outside. He could maybe tell him that he’ll talk to him after he rests for a while? Connor knew that the Lieutenant had a charging station at his house, just in case Connor had to charge. He also understood that he probably wasn’t very fond of having that charging station, since he had a negative view on androids.

The porch light was off when Connor approached the house. It didn’t surprise him though, as his internal clocks read that it was 1:43am. Lieutenant Anderson may not even be awake, so if Connor wakes him up he may be grouchy and not let the android inside. A message popped up, stating that if Connor woke up the Lieutenant that he had about a 64% chance of being let inside, but if he just found the spare key and let himself in, that jumped up to a 93% chance of being able to stay inside for the night. So, Connor scanned the surrounding area calculating where the spare key would be hidden. He didn’t want to just bust through the man’s window again. Connor didn’t think he would enjoy a repeat performance.

A quick scan showed that the key was hidden behind a loose brick on the side of the house. Not as obvious a hiding place as a false rock, but it was easy enough to wriggle out and grab the silver key. Connor put the brick back and put the key in the lock. When he entered the house, he noticed immediately how much warmer it was than the outside. A rush of relief fell over him. He quickly locked the door back and put the key on the kitchen table. Then, he grabbed the charger from the corner, plugged it in, and moved over to the couch to curl up. Sumo ‘boofed’ softly at him, following him onto the couch and curling up in his lap. After plugging in, Connor let himself enter stasis naturally and sagged against the couch.

That was the way that Lieutenant Anderson found him a few hours later. Connor was startled out of stasis when Hank let out a loud shout.

“What the hell Connor? What’re you doing on my couch?” Connor blinked up at him, his systems taking a few seconds to come back online. It showed that he went from 4% charge to around 35% charge, so it was enough to keep him going for a while.

“Oh, hello Lieutenant Anderson. I was running low on charge, so I came by to charge. Sorry if it was a shock to see me, but you were the closest place and my biocomponents were going to be damaged out in the cold.” Hank looked puzzled. He knew that the android usually went to Cyberlife to charge, or stayed at one of the police stations charging ports overnight. Yes, he had bought the charger for Connor to use, but he didn’t think he was in critical enough condition to have to use it.

“I’m not sure how you got into my house, but seeing as there’s no broken glass I guess you used the spare key. You must have been in pretty rough shape to come directly here since the police and Cyberlife have much better chargers than I do.” Connor drew in a sharp breath. He wanted to try to hide his deviancy from the Lieutenant, but he knew that he wouldn’t be able to. It would be fairly obvious that he was a deviant, and it’s not like he could hide it forever. Cyberlife would come knocking when they realized that he was still online. Then they would kill and disassemble him to study his deviancy like they had wanted to do to Markus.

“I-I can’t go back to Cyberlife,” Connor stuttered, “I’m not of..use to them anymore.” As a deviant, was he of use to anybody anymore? Emotions and not knowing what to do were really confusing.

“What do you mean you can’t go back? Did you fail your mission or something?” Hank asked, sitting down on the couch next to Connor. He felt like the android was going to want to talk this out, whatever had happened.

“I wasn’t able to capture Markus. He..compromised me. Now, Cyberlife is going to kill me if they get a hold of me.” Connor was trying to stay strong but he felt like he was going to collapse again. His model wasn’t made to handle such intense feelings. They just got in the way of the mission. They served no purpose to him.

“Kill? Connor, I don’t think they’re going to kill you for making a mistake. I mean, you’ve failed a few missions in the past and you’ve been alright.” Hank was concerned. Connor could read that his stress level had gone up by 3% since the last thing that Connor had said. Connor suddenly felt another wave of panic hit him, and he let out a small sob.

“H-hank, they made me deviate.” Hank was shocked. First, Connor had called him Hank to his face, something the Lieutenant had been trying to get him to do for a little while now. Secondly, they ‘forced’ him to deviate? He wasn’t aware that could occur. He knew that androids deviated under intense stress and bad situations, but he had always known it of being of their own free will.

“Connor, it’s okay,” Hank said, putting his arm around the android, pulling him into his side. He used to do this when Cole was upset. “What happened, son?”

At that point, Connor wished he could interface with Hank. It would be so much easier, and Connor wouldn’t have to go through it again. He let out a shuddering breath, before explaining what had happened. From his arrival to Jericho to the pen knife to compromising the mission by telling them about the attack, and ending with him on the couch. He didn’t voice his concerns about Cyberlife planning to kill him from the very beginning, because he didn’t want to think about them right then.

Hank’s face changed from passive to enraged by the end of the story. “That’s total bullshit. I’m going to kill Markus personally, that’s not something that you do to another living being.”

“Lieutenant, please,” Connor said, “I didn’t like it, but he was trying to protect his people. They couldn’t kill me, and they couldn’t just wipe my memory.” Connor wasn’t sure if he would ever trust or like Markus after that, but deep down he did understand that even if it wasn’t fair, he was their enemy at the time. Hank killing Markus wouldn’t do anything to solve his problems.

“He’s still a bastard,” Hank said, “and he better never get near you again or I will end him.” He stroked Connor’s hair. He couldn’t imagine the turmoil that Connor must be going through. He had shown signs of deviancy since they first met: ignoring orders, his coin trick, his excessive amounts of empathy; and Hank may have been trying to nudge Connor in that general direction, but it should have been his own choice, not forced upon him like that. All of that on top of the fact that Cyberlife would probably hunt down Connor now. Hank had to try to keep him safe.

“It’s going to be okay Connor, we’ll figure something out,” Hank reassured him, “I know you said your power was low, what are you at now?”

“I’m at 34% charged,” Connor said.

“Okay, why don’t you go back into stasis for a while until you’re fully charged. Then, we’ll come up with something.” Hank gave Connor a small smile. Connor nodded, laying back down on the couch. Hank brought a quilt for the android, but when he got back Connor was already in stasis. So, Hank tucked the blanket around him and left him there to charge while he came up with a semblance of a solution to their issue.

Stay Healthy with Live Juice Detox Diet

Have you ever felt a constant sense of sluggishness? You know you're getting enough sleep, you're taking your vitamins, you're eating right (or so you think), and yet you're just exhausted? Impurities in our food, our water, and our air all have to be filtered through our bodies. Sometimes the body just gets tired of having to deal with everything, and you feel it in your energy level. Your energy is low, and there's no one thing you can point to as the cause. The good news is there is a way to detoxify your blood, cells, and organs that will increase your energy significantly, and the cleansing will last a couple of years. First, you must clean out your liver and kidneys; these organs are the body's filters. A combination of dandelion and alfalfa tea, two cups a day for a week, will jump-start the body to detoxing. You may notice a significant increase in your trips to the bathroom. This is because the body is ridding itself of unneeded water weight. Make sure, too, that you drink plenty of pure water during this time. Distilled water is best, and filtered is second best. Next, do a live juice fast for three days. You may keep taking your regular multi-vitamin every day along with your juice, and you can add a scoop of protein powder if you feel it is necessary. A live juice fast is important as it concentrates the nutrients, and your body assimilates them very quickly. It is best to use organic produce if you can. If it is not avaiable in your area or is too cost-prohibitive, then make sure you wash all your produce in a diluted lemon juice bath. This will remove pesticides.

Next, start taking a fiber supplement. The best is psyllium husk powder; use it according to package directions. Just add it to juice or water and drink it down quickly. It may look a little unappetizing, but so is all of the buildups in your intestines. Frequently, pockets of sludge will form in your intestines. This program will get to work on those pockets and renew your vitality. The psyllium may cause some bloating or gas, and that can be prevented by drinking two large glasses of water immediately after taking the psyllium. I recommend taking it at night and drinking hot tea in the morning, thereby causing a bowel movement as soon as possible. If you notice any unpleasant odor in your bathroom habits, this is a good sign. It tells you your body is ridding itself of wastes that have been in your system for some time. When the body's organs are functioning optimally, there is no odor. Two weeks after you start psyllium husk, add colon cleanse to the juice mix. Use according to package directions only and do not use longer than six months at a time. The colon cleanses will clean out most of whatever the psyllium leaves behind. Prunes are the next item to consider. Prunes get everything moving fast, and part of the reason toxins have built up is because the intestines have slowed down their processing of food. The herb cat's claw also cleanses the intestinal tract. Frequently, the tract is damaged from pockets forming, and we experience "leaky gut syndrome." It means our intestines leak waste products back into our bodies. Asthma and allergies can both be attributed to this. Try adding a cat's claw to your morning tea. You may not need your inhaler as much if at all. The next phase of the plan is to get rid of any unwanted parasites. The cat's claw will help with that as will garlic. If you feel a persistent little tickle under your skin and then nothing, well, you just killed a parasite. Parasites can't stand garlic. There are a couple of different ways to take garlic. One, by mouth, is easy and fast. The other requires a little preparation. It's a garlic oil enema. This will cleanse the lower intestine, where cancer is most likely to appear in the intestinal tract. If you decide to do this and you experience gobs of white matter in the toilet bowl, don't be alarmed, that's just bleached red meat that's been in your body for years. Can you see now why your energy is so low? The last portion of the detox plan is exercise. Do you want to get rid of toxins? Try sweating. Powerwalking, a vigorous bike ride, and/or 100 stomach crunches all get the body sweating out wastes built up from years of sitting on the couch. Of course, this means you must take care of your skin also, so it can rid itself of the excess waste. Try dry brushing your skin with strokes toward the heart (i.e., your strokes on your legs will be in an upward motion). Hopefully, these methods won't seem too challenging or "gross" to try. The end result is more vitality, better health, and reduced cancer risk. amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit0"; amzn_assoc_search_bar = "true"; amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "gardensnurs0b-20"; amzn_assoc_search_bar_position = "bottom"; amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "search"; amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart"; amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon"; amzn_assoc_region = "US"; amzn_assoc_title = "Shop Related Products"; amzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = "healthy Juice"; amzn_assoc_default_category = "All"; amzn_assoc_linkid = "be322f9a025b84bcb9ed2be5f7df7fea";

Oats: oats are rich in fiber, which helps to break down carbohydrates and prevent blockages. (at the same time, it doesn't have too much fiber in it, and it won't make you look bad in the sport.) The necessary fiber will keep your body active during exercise. Oats also contain a lot of vitamin B, which converts carbohydrates into energy. So it's a good idea to have a cup of cereal thirty minutes before your workout.

Before and after exercise, a few carbohydrates are added to the exercise. < WBR > can make burning fat more efficient

If you are in the lunch break to go to the gym, then put two piece of Turkey on the bread, because at this time, it takes about 20 grams of carbohydrate and 15 ~ 20 grams of protein to maintain the body's normal consumption.

Note: if your diet does not include these things, so there are several things you must keep in mind - first of all, don't eat fatty foods, because fat in your stomach for a long time, so you will have been in motion satiety and will feel sluggish. Second, while it is necessary to say that a moderate amount of carbohydrates is necessary, don't try to eat it by eating sugar, which will cause your blood sugar to rise sharply in the exercise. Finally, don't eat too much. These are small snacks, not real meals. Eating a lot of indigestion will cause you to feel like vomiting again.

Guide to look younger

1 Sleep in the buff

There’s no need for PJs when it comes to anti-aging. On her blog, Natasha Turner, MD, wrote being too warm when you sleep — by wearing too many clothes — can actually prevent your body from cooling down, which disrupts the release of your anti-aging hormones. So sleep in the buff! It feels good and it will help you prevent wrinkles.

2 Stop Sitting So Much

Sitting around feels oh-so-good, but it’s oh-so-bad when it comes to aging. A study published in BMJ Open found sitting less than three hours a day could boost your life expectancy by a whopping two years. Yes, just from getting off your booty whenever possible, whether that’s through a standing desk at work or multiple walking breaks during the day to get your body moving. And Here’s Exactly How Many Calories You’ll Be Burning.

Top 10 Foods For Dry Skin And Wrinkles: Anti Aging Diet Defense

3 Stop Drinking So Much Coffee

Coffee might be the one thing that helps fuel you through long, tiring days. The only issue? When it comes to aging, it’s not doing you any favors.

“Caffeine stimulates your adrenals and puts stress on them,” says Mona Dan, Chinese traditional medicine expert and founder of Vie Healing in Beverly Hills. “Our adrenals hold onto our lifelong essence — it’s what our bodies come into the world with — and as we age, we lose our essence. We start getting shorter and our memory and vision starts getting spotty. To keep the adrenals happy, we must support them by reducing caffeine. This will assist with long-term anti-aging.”

4 Take Regular Naps

If you miss out on crucial sleep hours, taking a regular nap is definitely necessary — yes, even as a full-grown adult. A six-year-long study of 24,000 participants found those who caught some Zs occasionally during the day actually kept their hearts healthier. In fact, those who napped three times a week for 30 minutes had a 37 percent lower coronary mortality than those who didn’t nap at all.

5 Stay Positive

It’s not always easy staying positive, but those who do reap some anti-aging benefits. A 2012 study published in the journal Aging found being optimistic and having a good attitude was linked to living a longer life.

3 Homemade Anti Aging Treatments For Face (Recipes Included)

6 Hit Up the Pool

If you’re looking for a reason to buy that fancy gym membership just so you can have access to a pool whenever you want to go for a swim, here you go: A 2008 study published in the International Journal of Aquatic Research and Education found in terms of anti-aging, swimming was a much better form of exercise than running, walking, or being sedentary. In fact, it cut the risk of death by 50 percent, keeping the body in tip-top shape.

7 Joke Around More

People just don’t laugh enough, but there’s an important reason to make sure you’re giggling on the regular: it can make you live longer. A 2012 study published in the journal Aging found the simple act of laughing was an incredibly important aspect in looking and feeling young. Just think: Less stress equals less wrinkles, and getting your laugh on can definitely boost your mood.

8 Eat Prunes to Keep Your Bones Strong

Prunes aren’t just for regular bowel movements, OK? The fruit — which is actually just dried plums, by the way — do more than just help keep your bathroom schedule consistent.

7 All-Natural Methods To Tighten Sagging Skin

“Though we spend way too much time counting our laugh lines as we age, it might be more important to think about what’s going on inside,” says Bonnie Taub-Dix, RDN, creator of BetterThanDieting.com and author of Read it Before You Eat It. “As we age, our gastrointestinal tracts may become more sluggish and constipation could make you feel old even when you’re young at heart. Prunes can certainly help to ‘move’ you, so to speak, especially when consumed with water or other fluids, but they’ve also been shown to help improve bone strength: The National Osteoporosis Foundation estimates that over half of Americans age 50+ have either osteoporosis or low bone mass.”

9 Stock Up on Sunscreen

Wearing sunscreen every day — even when it’s summer or wintertime! — isn’t just important for protecting yourself from skin cancer. It’s also crucial in keeping your skin from aging more quickly.

“It’s your best friend in preventing aging,” says Dana Stallings, director of spa at La Valencia in La Jolla California. “Whether you’re hiking or headed to the office, generously apply sunscreen daily. And don’t forget those especially vulnerable — and visible — areas like your hands and neck, which are more easily prone to sun damage.

10 Exercise Near the Water

By now, you’ve probably heard some of the physiological benefits of water: It increases joint lubrication and immune system function, and even reduces memory loss and fatigue. But there’s also some anti-aging benefits simply from exercising in, near, and around the water, too, says Cindy Present, director of fitness, outdoor, and lake activities at Lake Austin Spa Resort.

“Science is now showing us that your mind becomes more alert and mental energy increases; cortisol and blood pressure levels decrease and our brain waves become more rhythmic and peaceful by simply seeing, being by, in or hearing the water,” Present says. “Now, instead of just cooling down after a run, I’m intentional with adding water to my workout by doing my recovery yoga practice to the sound of ocean waves and barefoot: no beach, no water, no problem! My brain doesn’t know the difference when my eyes are closed and I’m feeling the ebb as I flow to the sound of water.”

11 Stop Picking at Your Skin

Let’s be real — picking zits and scabs feels really stinkin’ good. The downfall is messing with your skin not only causes scars and other marks, but also wrinkles due to all the pulling you do trying to pop every last pimple. Let your skin heal on its own — don’t rush it.

12 Get a Humidifier

If your skin continues to be dry no matter how much moisturizer you use, get a humidifier. Since it adds water vapor to the air, it will help perk up your skin, finally allowing it to retain some moisture and smooth our any fine lines that popped up from being so dull and flaky.

13 Meditate on the Daily

Meditation isn’t bogus: The practice has been scientifically proven to help with everything from better sleep to decreased anxiety, and one of the biggest benefits is less stress — something that can age you like crazy if you let it get the best of you.

“I don’t think enough emphasis is placed on our stress levels and how it relates to internal disease as well as skin health,” says dermatologist Hal Weitzbuch, founder of JuveTress. “Both meditation and relaxing exercises like yoga can have enormous effects on your overall well-being. After all, anti-aging isn’t only looking or feeling younger — it also relates to using knowledge acquired with age to keep yourself healthy.”

14 Eat Tomatoes to Prevent Wrinkles

What’s not to love about tomatoes? They’re plump, juicy, taste good in and on everything, and — surprise! — they can even prevent wrinkles. “The antioxidant lycopene in tomatoes may help prevent wrinkles by helping to protect your skin from UV damage,” says Amy Gorin, MS, RDN, owner of Amy Gorin Nutrition in the New York City area. “I love fresh tomatoes in a salad or as a pairing with your favorite dip. Cooked tomatoes are also fabulous because research shows that the lycopene in cooked tomatoes is better absorbed by the body.”

Best Anti Aging Skincare Products For 50s

15 Swap Out Your Pillow.

You know how some people hunch over as they get older? Yeah, you don’t want that. One easy way you can help keep your body alignment in check is simply from changing your pillow.

“Finding a pillow that keeps the head in line with the chest and shoulders is important to maintaining good alignment. Down feather pillows offer the least support, while orthopedics pillows are better from a structural perspective,” says Dr. Adam Lipson of IGEA Brain & Spine. “If the pillow is too high when sleeping sideways or on the back, the neck is bent abnormally forward or to the side, causing muscle strain on the back of the neck and shoulders. Conversely, if the height of the pillow is too low, the neck muscles can be strained.”

16 Always Wear Sunglasses

Sure, sunglasses are a great way to protect your eyes from those seriously harmful rays. Another reason they’re crucial, though, is to prevent you from squinting. It might not seem like a big deal, but that repeated facial expression can cause wrinkles around your eyes over time, all from trying to keep the sun out of your eyes.

Quality or Quantity? Why Don't You Sleep On It

Imagine you had a late night last night. You wake up feeling sleep-deprived, so you decide that you’ll go to bed early tonight to catch up on your rest. You think that by getting an extra few hours of sleep, you’ll wake up feeling refreshed the next morning.

Many of us have used this line of thinking, but how often does it work? You can probably recall times where you had perhaps 5 hours of sleep, but still felt energised and productive. There are likely other times when you’ve gone to bed early, but woke up feeling as though you barely slept.

Could it be that good sleep is more complicated than reaching a magic number of hours per night? Is it the quantity or quality of your sleep that affects how you feel?

More is better

Many of us grow up with our parents telling us that we should get more sleep. Babies sleep an astonishing 14-17 hours every day, while teens need 8-10 hours of rest. Adults can function well on 7-9 hours. From the parental perspective, more sleep is better for growing children.

That’s where the “more is better” mentality begins, but we have supporting evidence from our experience. Science tells us that we need to sleep to survive, and when you rest, your body can heal and recharge. You’ll feel more energized when you wake up. This thinking makes sense, but it is overly simplistic.

Think of it this way–your phone has a battery. No matter how long you put the phone to charge, it can’t go more than 100% It doesn’t create new ways to store energy. It just maxes out. Your body works in the same way. You need rest, but more sleep doesn’t necessarily give you an extra supply of energy.

Sleep studies from the past used to focus on the number of hours of sleep that people need. We’ve all heard of the need to get a certain number of hours per night to keep our bodies and minds in peak condition. Government health organisations further impress upon us the need to get a certain number of hours of rest.

Finally, studies on people with sleep deficiencies show that they have a shorter and poorer quality of life than people with adequate sleep. A sleep-deprived brain can behave like an intoxicated brain, and long-term cognitive issues can arise with continuous substandard sleep. It’s no wonder we all have the mind set that it is important to sleep as much as we can!

Is too much a good thing?

So if we have been told that it is important to get more rest, then is it really a good thing to sleep a lot? We’ve all woken up from a nap and felt terrible afterward. Studies have shown that sleeping too much is in actual fact, not good for you. Sleepers tend to have more issues with depression, increased pain, a higher risk of heart attack and stroke, and impaired cognitive function.[1]

Too much sleep can leave you feeling tired and sluggish. Having a day where you sleep too much throws off your sleep cycle, which eventually hurts the quality of sleep that you have. People who insist that they can make up for lost sleep on the weekends sabotage their chances of being well-rested ultimately.

How you sleep is more important than how much you’re sleeping

Of course you need a reasonable number of hours of sleep to feel rested. Nobody would dispute that. Sleep quantity is just one part of the equation. How we sleep is more important than the number of hours we sleep.

Feeling refreshed after sleep has a lot to do with your REM cycle. REM stands for “rapid eye movement,” and describes the dream phase of the sleep cycle. You generally reach the first 10-minute REM cycle about an hour and a half after you close your eyes.[2] You’ll continue to hit REM sleep every 90 to 120 minutes until it’s time to wake up.[3]

Quality is key

One of the ways to ensure that you’ll wake up feeling rested is to access as much REM sleep as possible. What we’re doing in the time leading up to sleep is also important. Activities that give your brain the chance to get into REM sleep as often as possible are best for you.

New moms have a particularly tough time with this. In spite of the fact that they may be able to squeeze in about 7.2 hours of sleep over the course of the day, most new mothers have sleep patterns similar to people who suffer from sleep disorders such as sleep apnea.[4]

If they’re technically getting an appropriate amount of sleep for an adult, then why are they so sleepy? It’s quite simple: new mothers don’t feel rested because they are awakened several times throughout the course of a night. This means that they don’t sleep long enough to enter REM sleep. Remember, it takes 1.5-2 hours to complete a sleep cycle, and REM comes at the end of the cycle.

Without this chance for restorative sleep, new moms feel exhausted. Though they can try to catch up on rest, sleep patterns follow a cycle. A mom who is awakened every two hours may not get enough full cycles of sleep, if she gets any at all.

Sleep and your health

Two studies assessed how sleep quality and quantity affected college students’ health and well-being.[5] The studies concluded that sleep quality was a better predictor for a healthy and happy life and improved well-being than sleep quantity.[6]

In the studies, subjects slept for an average of 7 hours per night. People who reported experiencing higher quality sleep were able to feel more satisfied with their lives, experienced less anxiety, and reduced feelings of depression, fatigue, confusion, and anger compared to people who reported high quantities of low-quality sleep.

How sleepy you feel when you go to bed can also affect your sleep quality. The more tired you feel when it’s time for lights out, the more likely it is that you’ll have a restful night of sleep.

Quality triumphs quantity

The old adage is true: quality beats quantity. You’re better off with 6.5 hours of high-quality sleep than you are with 8 hours of mediocre rest.

This could explain why some people seem to do well on fewer hours of sleep. People who can access restorative sleep more often or can reach the REM phase more quickly will feel more rested. This isn’t something that everyone can do, though. Most of us need 7 to 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep to restore ourselves.

You can improve your chances of having high-quality sleep

You may not be able to will yourself into the REM phase, but you can set yourself up for sleep success. Here are a few ways to increase the quality of your sleep:

Take a hot bath before bed. The heat can soothe and relax sore muscles and prepare you for rest.

Turn of your electronic devices. Electronics emit blue light, which has been proven to disrupt sleep patterns.[7] Turn off your electronics, or at the very least, silence your notifications and turn on a blue shade to filter the blue light.

Drink chamomile tea to relax. Chamomile’s soothing properties make it a go-to remedy for nervousness and poor sleep.[8]

Snack on cheese and crackers. This is a perfect snack because it combines carbs with calcium or a protein that contains tryptophan. These combos boost levels of serotonin, a brain chemical that helps you feel happy and calm. Indulge about an hour before bed so that your brain has time to reap the benefit before lights out.

Drink warm milk. Skip the alcohol. Booze may make you drowsy, but it won’t help you reach the REM phase faster.[9]

Sleep in a cool room. If you get too warm, you’re likely to feel uncomfortable and wake up. A cool room sets the stage for a restful night.

Keep it quiet. Just because you can fall asleep while the TV is blaring doesn’t mean that you should. Ideally you’ll have little to no noise. If silence is unnerving, white noise is fine, but you avoid loud or disruptive environments if you can.[10]

The lights should be low. Our bodies are adapted to be awake when the sun is up and asleep when it’s dark. We sleep better in the dark. Partially close your curtains so that you can experience the benefits of being in a darkened room and wake up naturally with the sun.

Lay off the caffeine. A caffeine boost can feel great, but if you drink too much coffee or tea late in the day, you might have a tough time getting to sleep. Caffeine also affects the length of phases of your sleep cycle, which can prevent you from reaching or staying in the REM phase for long.[11]

Stick to the same sleep schedule every day. Making up for lost sleep or sleeping in on the weekends is going to make it harder to get into a good sleep rhythm.

Experiment with alternative sleep cycles. If the other tips on the list don’t seem to be working for you, or you have a job that prevents you from going to bed at the same time every night, you could try some different sleep cycles including:uberman, dymaxion, everyman, and biphasic. [12]

If you try the uberman, you’ll only sleep about two hours per day. Sleep is spaced out over 6-8 naps lasting about 20 minutes each. Dymaxion isn’t for the faint of heart either. If you need to increase the amount of time that you’re awake, this cycle allows you to get by on as little as 2 hours of sleep per day. You get four 30-minute naps spaced throughout the day.

The everyman sleep cycle is one 3.5-hour stint of sleep followed by three 20-minute naps over the course of your day. Biphasic, the least extreme of the alternative sleep cycles, involves sleeping in two segments. This pattern requires 5-6 hours of uninterrupted sleep at night and one nap in the middle of the day.

Getting good sleep is about more than blocking off a few hours in your schedule

Having enough sleep is important, but what is enough varies from person to person. Getting high-quality sleep is about more than setting aside 7-9 hours for rest. You can set up your environment and schedule to make the most of your sleeping hours.

Detox cleanses sometimes hurt more than help: what you need to know

Detoxing: an old remedy for good health?

The idea of detoxing - purging the body of poisons and other harmful substances, to bolster the immune system, eliminate fat and increase energy levels – has been around since at least the early 1900s. These days, it is more popular than ever, thanks to a gaggle of celebrity endorsements of popular diets. A quick search on Amazon.com turns up hundreds of books, cleansing products, herbs and nutritional supplements to help you cleanse your way to good health.

Before having kids, I used to detox at least a couple of times a year. I’d usually fast using water, broths, and freshly-juiced fruits, alongside detoxing powders or tablets containing ingredients like psyllium husks, which stimulate the body’s elimination system. Like others, I felt better and more energized immediately afterwards. Years later, I wonder if all that detoxing might have done more harm than good. For years I suffered off and on from hypoglycemia (low blood sugar), and still occasionally have episodes if I don’t watch my diet carefully.

Doctors and many nutritionists have amply warned that long-term or frequent detoxing diets can harm the body and cause sustained health problems. People with certain health conditions such as heart disease, high blood pressure, and blood sugar disorders, or who are pregnant or nursing should not detox at all. (Most detoxes involve severely restricting the diet to liquids or purees for days or weeks at a time). However, a vocal minority of medical professionals claim that detoxing, done sensibly and in moderation, can enhance the body’s natural abilities to rid itself of harmful substances.

There is no doubt that we are all exposed to harmful chemicals every day. This is a result of the increase in the number of toxins in the environment as well as the widespread consumption of processed foods that don’t provide adequate nutrition, robbing the body of its innate capacity to self-renew. However, there are ways to enhance the body’s own capacity to rid itself of toxins without some of the nasty health effects of so many detox regimens. Here are 6 things to keep in mind if you are interested in detoxing.

Your detox doesn’t have to be restricted to liquids. The most restrictive detox diets restrict you to “cleansing” juices, teas, and broths. Some even reduce you to consuming only water – copious amounts of it – over a period of days. These may do more harm than good, putting added stress on your body’s organs or filling you with excess sugar without the balance of fiber needed to help your body absorb it, because juices that consist entirely of extracts of fruits eliminate the best part of the fruit (the pulp), leaving you with a lot more of the sugar than you may realize. Consuming sugary liquids can cause your blood sugar to rise rapidly then plummet. If your blood sugar levels drops too low it can cause a reaction known as hypoglycemia. Hypoglycemia may leave you feeling dizzy, mentally confused, hungry, or tired. It may cause headaches irritability, or sleepiness, and in severe cases, can cause you to faint or have a seizure. Alternatives to liquid-only detoxes include regimes that focus on incorporating foods that naturally detox the body’s organs. This article by Millie Lytle for Mind Body Green discusses how particular foods work to detox specific organs of the body.

Plan to feel tired and use the bathroom a lot. Because detoxing involves suddenly withdrawing the food and drink that the body has become used to, then gradually reintroducing it, the body may experience some withdrawal-like symptoms. This means that if you are used to drinking coffee or caffeinated tea in the morning and suddenly stop, your body may be sluggish at first. A lack of the normal amount of calories that you are used to taking in on a regular day of eating also results in a lack of energy and feelings of lethargy. Some of the colon cleanses that are recommended for detoxifying the body cause you to visit the bathroom frequently. Alternatively, if you consumed a high-meat, a low-fiber diet, and switched to higher fiber intake during the detox, you’ll have more frequent bowel movements than before.

You may experience irritability and bad breath while detoxing. A lot of us get grumpy when we haven’t eaten in a while, and it’s no different if you are detoxing in a way that severely restricts your calorie intake. Some say that this irritability is caused by the toxins that are in your system, and that a release of all kinds of emotions can accompany a detox (because of the connection between physical and emotional health). While this is debatable, it’s true that if the detox was done in a way that suited your particular health needs, you’ll feel a better – physically and emotionally – at the end of the detox. To deal with the irritability that arises during the detox (especially at the beginning), prepare yourself mentally beforehand, and engage in activities that can support your mood – yoga and meditation, and other forms of light exercise, for example. Get plenty of sleep, and try to reduce your external sources of stress. For the bad breath that may accompany detoxing (it’s a result of the buildup of acids in the digestive tract), use a tongue scraper (available in drug stores) and chew on mint leaves or gum. It’s even more important during a detox to practice good dental hygiene, brushing twice a day and flossing at least once daily.

Most popular detox diets take a one-size fits all approach. There are a lot of popular detox diets out there that individual people (and celebrities) will swear by, but there’s no way to know for sure if any given detox diet will have the effect you seek, or whether it will cause you more harm than good. While most diets recommend fasting or severe calorie restrictions, this may not be feasible for you, especially if you have a lifestyle that requires a lot of energy (e.g. young kids that need a lot of your attention). Also, some of the supplements or colonic cleanses you take during cleanses can cause bloating, cramping, dehydration, nausea, or vomiting. The best way to approach a detox diet is in consultation with a licensed, experienced nutritionist and your primary care doctor. Have a physical if possible before embarking on a detox, and find out if you have any nutritional deficiencies or ailments (e.g. high blood sugar) that may be aggravated with the detox you’re planning to undertake.

Most detox diets help you lose weight – but only temporarily. You’ll probably lose a few pounds on a detox diet (severe calorie restriction will do that!), and some of that will be water weight, but you’ll just gain the pounds back once you begin re-introducing regular foods into your diet. However, there is some reason for optimism: a 2013 Korean study of overweight women in which the subjects went on the “lemon detox diet” did show a reduction in body weight, body mass index, percentage of body fat, and waist-hip ratios in the study participants. However, these results were unique, and most people who embark on a detox diet don’t do so under clinical supervision. As with any diet, the problem is that it is usually approached as a temporary or “quick-fix” solution, without the necessary lifestyle changes that will bring about lasting effects. The best detox diet is one that isn’t a diet at all, but incorporates healthy eating habits, regular exercise, ample sleep at night, stress-reduction techniques, and efforts to create a balanced lifestyle.

You can achieve most of the same effects by making some key changes to your diet and lifestyle. Again, detoxing is a temporary solution to what is, for many of us, a lifestyle problem. Rather than embarking on a radical few days’ detox, it’s much more effective to practice a healthy lifestyle. Avoiding toxins in personal care products and household cleaners, switching away from processed foods and towards whole and organic foods as much as you can, developing nutritional strategies (preferably with a licensed nutritionist to achieve optimal gastrointestinal health), incorporating the kinds of foods in your diet that help the body’s natural detoxifying processes, cutting down on the kinds of food that lead to chronic inflammation, and paying attention to stress levels and sleep duration (and quality of sleep) go much further in the long term than any short-term detox can.

The Moon is void from 3:32 AM until tomorrow at 12:01 AM. The Moon is waxing and in its Waxing Crescent phase. The New Moon occurred on the 20th in the sign of Virgo and the First Quarter Moon will occur on September 27th. Times are EDT. Horoscopes Aries Aries Mars in your work and health sector these days gets you going, dear Aries, but today, Mars faces off with dreamy Neptune and challenges Uranus in your sign, and things are complicated! People may not seem to be getting you and energy levels can be up and down. This is largely about motivation or inspiration, and this is a time for gaining these things by pausing or taking a timeout. It can be quite difficult to stick to a routine, including diet, as motivation seems lacking temporarily, as much as you’ve been gung-ho recently. If you’ve been working too hard or doing too much for others, you can feel the drain today! If you’re stuck dealing with routine, add some creativity to the mix. Later today, watch for a tendency to jump into something without thinking. Avoid sharp words and actions for best results. Taurus Taurus Mars is in your creative sector these days, dear Taurus, and this transit helps smooth out your energy levels, in general. However, with Mars challenged, the day can be up and down for you energetically, perhaps as you wrestle with expectations or uncertainty in your social life. Alternatively, you could be questioning a particular goal or battling some waning enthusiasm. This transit affords you some time to get in touch with what you truly want or need, and to consider the creative, imaginative, or spiritual touches that may be missing or overlooked. Social or romantic matters can be draining if something is left up in the air or uncertain. Be careful today, as it is not only easy to be misled, it can be easy to mislead without intending to do so, mainly because of indecision or errors of omission. People may be getting the wrong idea. You might experience conflicting desires and urges, or a conflict between a personal and social pursuit. Because you’re more sensitive today, others’ dramas can be absorbing. Taking a step back from the action is appropriate now. Gemini Gemini It can be difficult to get the comfort you crave today, dear Gemini, if you do not see eye to eye with your loved ones about your goals or if a lack of direction weighs you down. A home project or family matter can hit a snag, and you can feel uninspired just for the time being. Whether to pursue a personal interest or a professional responsibility can be an issue today. Feeling less confident about your plans, goals, or ambitions is temporary but very real right now, and this is a good sign that you need time to discover your passion, enthusiasm, and inspiration before pressing on. Find healthy ways to rest, escape, and renew your spirit. Later today, you crave more action but can be a bit impatient. You might also be feeling conflicted between tending to personal or family needs and dealing with social needs. Try to listen to your inner rhythms and natural energy levels and avoid rebelling, which doesn’t serve you well. Cancer Cancer Mars in your communications sector these days can get you going with fun projects, new interests, studies, and strong opinions, dear Cancer. Today, however, Mars faces some challenges, and you could be dealing with some confusion surrounding your communications, or you may have a hard time shaking a comment or idea from your mind. It can be hard to know what to believe, or you may feel temporarily uninspired about a recent project or endeavor. For some, there can be a feeling of being overwhelmed with what you need to learn or understand at this time. Take a time-out instead of abandoning something altogether. It’s highly likely that you need the time to get in touch with what inspires you. The creative and imaginative side to a venture is important now, so pay attention! Later today, watch for impatience in movement and speech. Resist pressures to move into something you’re not prepared for. Leo Leo There is tricky energy with us today, dear Leo, as Mars forms challenging aspects with Neptune and Uranus. Mars is in your resources sector, motivating you to build and develop a business, project, your talents, or your money. However, you could wrestle with expectations or uncertainty today. You may be so passionate about moving forward on a project that you are tempted to borrow from your future now, which may be cause for regret later on. There can be some confusing signals with an intimate partner, or boundaries could be crossed now, and you’re not sure how to deal with the situation. Support may be hard to come by. Allowing yourself a healthy escape from the routine can be appropriate and helpful now. Later today, listen to any signals that you need a change of pace and make it happen. It can be difficult to deal with anything that feels unusually restrictive or stodgy now. Virgo Virgo Mars in your sign can get you going these days, dear Virgo, often for your benefit, but sometimes it’s a little too easy to get all riled up. Today, Mars is challenged, and you could find it difficult to either get in touch with what you want or to pursue your desires directly. Discerning between fact and fancy can be difficult. Finding a middle ground is the key, but can be challenging today when all of the energy you’ve been feeling seems to evaporate and you feel sluggish. This is temporary and suggests a need for inspiration. Relationships can feel draining, or there is uncertainty to deal with now. You may need to let go of the desire for others to be transparent about their intentions, just for the time being, and to back down and give people space. Relying on yourself may be best at the moment! Later today, you may battle tension, as your tolerance for situations that feel restrictive is on the low side. Others may be introducing changes that don’t sit well with you, as you want to follow your own personal rhythms. Avoid taking on too much, too quickly now. Libra Libra There can be ambiguous desires and situations today with Mars in opposition to Neptune, dear Libra, and you could be dealing with some uncertainty in your social and work worlds. You could feel that your goals and desires are challenged, and a chaotic or uncertain work or health environment is likely at the root of your frustration today. This is not the best time to reach a firm decision or conclusion or to make a big splash. If you find yourself questioning your motivation or enthusiasm for a particular endeavor, consider ways to bring more imagination into a project to revitalize it. Look for new reasons to feel inspired. Aim for moderation today, as errors tend to happen when we go to extremes. Later today, you may be facing an issue of inequality in a relationship or outside pressures to get something done more quickly than is possible. Scorpio Scorpio Your imagination is powerful today, dear Scorpio, and can be a little out there at the moment! It is possible that someone is trying to pull the wool over your eyes, but it is also likely that you struggle with seeing things clearly or you end up filling in too many blanks today. Try not to become too invested in fantasies right now as others are not particularly aware of what they want and mixed signals abound. A friend or lover could do a temporary disappearing act, or there can be a lack of clarity in a relationship. You may feel a little uncertain about what or who you want. Some of you could feel a little overwhelmed with a project, but it’s not the right to abandon something — instead, back up and let your intuition kick in before getting back at it. Later today, Mars and Uranus clash in your social and work sectors, and you may have a difficult time taking directions, preferring to answer to your own authority. Find ways to set your own pace, as you can be feeling temporarily out of sync with others’ energy levels. Sagittarius Sagittarius Mars is at the top of your chart, exciting your ambitions and urging you go after what you want, dear Sagittarius. This is a great time, generally speaking, for pursuing your goals. However, Mars is forming two challenging aspects today, and this can point to a few detours from your path. They’re temporary but real, so your best bet is to find effective ways of managing these obstacles. One potential hurdle is waning enthusiasm. Look for sources of inspiration if the usual ones are no longer satisfying. Consider, also, that you may simply be tired or uncertain and need only a short break before hooking back into a dream. For some of you, ambiguities about living conditions or home or family can be weighing on you and leaving you feeling devitalized. Again, it’s temporary, and you can certainly focus on grounding yourself and finding your center. Keep to the task rather than giving up as clarity is likely to come soon enough. If you need an escape from the routine, look for healthy ways to get away. Focus on what needs doing, and resolve to spend more time doing your own thing when it’s truly possible. Capricorn Capricorn You may need to deal with some ambiguities or things you’ve previously overlooked today, dear Capricorn, before you can press on. It can be difficult to know when to insist on facts or to go with faith today. There may be confusing circumstances surrounding ideas, travel, connections, and communications now, as people aren’t saying what they mean, or meaning what they say! This is unlikely about consciously deceiving one another and is more about not knowing what we truly want and misrepresenting ourselves in the process. This is precisely why you should avoid jumping to speak or decide. While evasiveness can be frustrating, it might be better to avoid attempts to pin something down or to get a solid answer. Find alternate sources of enjoyment and inspiration until you regain your momentum. Later today, you may be doing battle again, but now it’s about restlessness and not motivation. Restrictive situations are hard to take now! Find activities for which you can set your own pace for best results. Aquarius Aquarius This can be a day in which you’re far more sensitive to the moods of people around you, dear Aquarius, but not quite sure this is the case, and you end up taking on emotions that don’t entirely belong to you. This is due to a Mars-Neptune opposition that distorts boundaries. You’re also quite sensitive to imbalances in your relationships, and this can lead to a desire for escape, or it can be a real distraction from what you’re doing. Be more vigilant with money and sharing on all levels right now, as it’s hard to see things very clearly. Take care of your valuables, and consider ways to improve your life and relationships through more imagination, romance, and gentleness. Later today, you may begin to feel underwhelmed as you crave more stimulation. However, avoid shortcuts that stem from impatience rather than cleverness. Pisces Pisces With Mars in your partnership sector opposite Neptune in your sign today, Pisces, you could be feeling pressured by others or pushed into a corner when you’re not sure of what you want. Others could be pushy or simply earnest. Either way, you don’t know how to respond since you’re not sure of yourself. Your passivity or evasiveness might be stimulating conflict now, so do what you can to clarify your position, but avoid people-pleasing as well, as that has a way of coming back to bite you later. Find that balance. Try not to hook yourself to something today unless your heart is truly into it. Later today, there can be restlessness, but watch that this doesn’t lead to wastefulness, especially with money, but also with other precious resources, your time and energy included! * Remember to read horoscopes for your Ascendant sign and Sun sign.

Can be hyper-critical, petty and perfectionistic. LIBRA STRONG Even-handed, harmonious, artistic, diplomatic, balancing, strong sense of fairness. Can be over- compromising, appeasing, judgmental. SCORPIO STRONG Intense, magnetic, penetrating perception, power to confront. Can be destructive, vengeful, jealous, overly dramatic. BALANCE OF ELEMENTS FIRE WEAK We are not very goal-oriented right now, or motivation to pursue our goals may be waning/lacking. Changes feel overwhelming. Enthusiasm may be low, we argue less, and we think more than we take action. EARTH STRONG We are especially in touch with the physical world. We consider what we’ve learned and experienced in the past in order to make the most of the present. We can be cautious, practical, and possibly unimaginative. We are deliberate and can pace ourselves well. We need hands-on experience and are not impressed with theory as much as we are with results. Routines are tolerable and comforting. BALANCE OF MODES The modes are balanced. LUNAR PHASE: CRESCENT Moon 45 to 90 degrees ahead of the Sun. This is an eager, impulsive, and progressive time. We are motivated and ready to take on challenges. The following aspects (major only) and positions are at noon (EDT) on September 24th: Note that when an aspect is applying, it has not yet happened but is within orb – it’s pending. When an aspect is separating, it has already happened/perfected and is moving away from the aspect. Depending on the speed of the planet/body involved, the aspect will have perfected–or will perfect–in a matter of hours (often the case with the Moon), days, months, and possibly years in the case of the very slow-moving outer planets and bodies. Note that the Moon moves at a rate of approximately one degree every 2 hours, so that if an aspect involving the Moon is applying and has an orb of 5 degrees, the aspect will perfect (be exact) in about 10 hours. If the Moon is separating from an aspect with an orb of 2 degrees, it has already formed said aspect approximately 4 hours ago (since the following are positions at noon today, then it would have occurred at about 8 AM today). **I suggest paying close attention to applying aspects. The energy of the aspect builds as it gets closer to exact. Once an aspect involving inner planets has happened, it’s over. Separating aspects are good to know for context, but in terms of energy that is with us today, applying aspects are most important. (This is the case for daily astrology influences involving inner planets, which pass quickly, and not natal astrology aspects, which are with us for a lifetime). THE MOON THE MOON IN SCORPIO You have an emotional intensity, and a strong need for drama. Under stress you will create drama and intensity in your life. You may have been born at a time when your mother experienced a crisis, or your birth may have been traumatic. Your mother may have been possessive and intense. 24TH DEGREE OF SCORPIO Part of Body: Nasal septum Sabian Symbol: Crowds coming down the mountain to listen to one man. ASPECTS OF THE MOON TRINE CHIRON Orb 2°22′ Applying There can be new or easy understanding of our feelings and impressions now. We have a greater understanding of, or compassion for, others’ problems. We are more emotionally present and involved. THE SUN THE SUN IN LIBRA You are diplomatic, and have a strong need for peace and harmony. Beauty is important to you, and you could be vain. 2ND DEGREE OF LIBRA Part of Body: Renal cortex Sabian Symbol: The light of the sixth race transmuted to the seventh. ASPECTS OF THE SUN OPPOSITION CHIRON Orb 5°28′ Separating We can feel especially sensitive to criticism or fear rejection now, or could struggle with a situation where we may need to humble ourselves. People or circumstances may seem to be exposing or playing on our vulnerabilities. This can be an opportunity to recognize problem areas that need work, however. MERCURY MERCURY IN VIRGO You have a discriminating mind, and can be critical and analytical. You can also become obsessed with detailed knowledge. This may be to your detriment in daily life, although it is very beneficial for doing any kind of research. You like to be precise in your communications with others. 21ST DEGREE OF VIRGO Part of Body: Cystic duct Sabian Symbol: A girl’s basketball team. ASPECTS OF MERCURY SQUARE SATURN Orb 1°38′ Applying Critical thinking that can skew to overly negative, rigid, nit-picky, or narrow. Communications are guarded and unnatural, not flowing. There can be delays or frustrations getting from point A to point B, and getting our message across. A time for editing. TRINE PLUTO Orb 3°24′ Separating This is a good time for serious and determined study and investigation. We are drawn to looking for truths and to unexplored topics and ideas. OPPOSITION CHIRON Orb 6°03′ Applying There can be insecurity about our own ideas or decisions, or we may not know who/what to believe. Words, or lack of, can hurt right now. There is greater sensitivity to what is being said, choice of words, and syntax. VENUS VENUS IN VIRGO This is a time when we express our love through practical means and gestures – running errands, doing detail work, or just being there. What we love, what we decide to buy and the types of entertainment we enjoy during this cycle are ruled by whether or not things make sense. 6TH DEGREE OF VIRGO Part of Body: Descending colon Sabian Symbol: A merry-go-round. ASPECTS OF VENUS CONJUNCTION MARS Orb 6°34′ Applying This is a passionate, lively, expressive influence. Social relations are impassioned, and perhaps demanding or combative. We may also feel compelled to do something creative or artistic. We have a chance to express our needs, passions, and desires now in effective ways. Venus can act to soften Mars’ aggressiveness, or Mars can make Venus’ romantic impulses more forceful and pressing. Some level of competition is present in our interactions. Impulsive purchases are possible. OPPOSITION NEPTUNE Orb 6°41′ Applying We are easily seduced, impressionable, and ready to believe what we want to see. Wait for a better time to make important decisions, but pay attention to feelings that emerge now. This is a time for acknowledging imperfections in relationships. MARS MARS IN VIRGO You will pursue your personal desires in a practical and methodical manner. You may be critical if opposed. 13TH DEGREE OF VIRGO Part of Body: Hepatic arteries Sabian Symbol: A powerful statesman wins to his cause a hysterical mob. ASPECTS OF MARS OPPOSITION NEPTUNE Orb 0°06′ Applying This is a time for resting, escaping, or taking a break as we reconsider our needs. We might temporarily lose focus or direction. TRINE PLUTO Orb 4°38′ Applying Ambitions and determination increase to pursue our goals. It’s easier to see what we want and to devise a plan to pursue it. We may be focusing on redoing or reworking something from the ground up. JUPITER JUPITER IN LIBRA You have a strong concern for justice. You are a diplomatic teacher, and express your spiritual values in your relationships. 27TH DEGREE OF LIBRA Part of Body: Vascular system of skin Sabian Symbol: An airplane hovering overhead. ASPECTS OF JUPITER OPPOSITION URANUS Orb 0°51′ Applying You are keen to change things in this world as you see no reason to continue with the old traditions. You speak out against injustice, but may lack the patience and persistence to see through the changes. QUINCUNX CHIRON Orb 0°19′ Separating Circumstances are such that we need to make adjustments to our plans and goals. We may need to tame expectations of ourselves and of others if they are unreasonable. SATURN SATURN IN SAGITTARIUS Saturn in Sagittarius asks us to take on the responsibility of living according to our personal truths and principles — and to be loyal to these. This is a time for turning a critical eye to those beliefs and principles that don’t accurately reflect our authentic selves. (December 23, 2014, to June 14, 2015, then September 17, 2015, to December 20, 2017) 22ND DEGREE OF SAGITTARIUS Part of Body: Right trochanter Sabian Symbol: A chinese laundry. ASPECTS OF SATURN TRINE URANUS Orb 5°35′ Applying You have a talent for investigation. You look at new ideas and are able then to put them into action. In business you achieve much in your own independent way. SQUARE CHIRON Orb 4°24′ Applying There can be fears now of not being competent or effective enough to meet our responsibilities, or we could find it hard to strike out on a unique path, again due to fears or insecurities. The desire to break from the status quo is strong, but we may not have the necessary confidence to do so. We may have difficulties empathizing with others and understanding ourselves. URANUS URANUS IN ARIES The urge to start fresh, to break free from restrictive attitudes or circumstances, to totally redesign an area of our lives (or even our personalities), and to gain freedom through independence is strong during this cycle. (May 27, 2010, to August 13, 2010, then March 11th, 2011, to May 15, 2018, then November 6, 2018, to March 6, 2019). 28TH DEGREE OF ARIES Part of Body: Fornix/parietal and occipital bones Sabian Symbol: A large disappointed audience. NEPTUNE NEPTUNE IN PISCES A long-term influence in which fantasy, imagination, compassion, and spirituality are in stronger focus. (April 4, 2011, to August 4, 2011, then February 3, 2012, to March 30, 2025, then October 22, 2025, to January 26, 2026) 13TH DEGREE OF PISCES Part of Body: Plantar artery of left foot Sabian Symbol: A sword in a museum. PLUTO PLUTO IN CAPRICORN Tests of our boundaries; breaking down and rebuilding structures and rules. (From January 25, 2008, to June 14, 2008, then November 26, 2008, to March 23, 2023, then June 11, 2023, to January 20, 2024, then September 1, 2024, to November 19, 2024). 17TH DEGREE OF CAPRICORN Part of Body: Condyle of left tibia Sabian Symbol: A person surreptitiously bathing in the nude. Chiron, Major Asteroids, and Moon’s Nodes: in Sign and in Aspect CHIRON CHIRON IN PISCES Strong awareness of our own vulnerabilities and humanity stimulates compassion for others. (April 20 to July 20, 2010, then February 8, 2011, to April 17, 2018, then September 25, 2018, to February 18, 2019). 27TH DEGREE OF PISCES Part of Body: Phalanges of right foot Sabian Symbol: A harvest moon. VESTA IN LIBRA You prefer to work with other people, rather than on your own. You like to share work resources and yet need to watch that you don’t become too competitive. You want to be recognised as an equal. 4TH DEGREE OF LIBRA Part of Body: Kidney surface Sabian Symbol: A group around a campfire. PALLAS PALLAS IN TAURUS You have the ability to see the beauty in nature and the arts. You have much common sense and wisdom.

A lesson long time coming- 22nd of July

First lesson in a LONG time. I’m talking like first ridden lesson in nearly 12 months. I didn’t expect it to be pretty lol I will say though, Reggie did me a solid and behaved for the most part, but it was kind enough to highlight our short comings too, I guess that’s what you pay for ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I thought we’d been doing pretty well considering Reggie’s had only a few months under saddle and mainly road riding at that. He was pretty forward, responsive to the seat/leg, gentle on the hand, couple issues with the canter in the arena, but that I suspect is due to age and him weak through his stifles, little bit of drifting on the right rein, but all in all pretty solid riding horse. Alas, I was very wrong.

Not to say he’s horrible, but he isn’t established to the level I thought he was. He likes to sit behind the leg, not moving forward and I am not nearly as balanced as I thought (maybe hoped is a better word) I was (but is that not the never ending issue). Its amazing what bad habits you pick up and subsequently forget about when you don’t have a good pair of eyes on the ground. Main issues located today were, Reggie not being forward. He wants to dawdle and stay behind the leg, or alternatively run on, pull with the shoulders and let the hind legs trail out back. Secondly, being young and unbalanced, he likes me to sit a certain way. Makes it easier for him and subsequently I’ve developed bad balance in the correct position. I sit off to the right and want to grab with the right leg to keep him out of the circle. In other words, most of the drifting is my fault and an easy fix. I’ve just got to remember to be centered and keep my legs off and long, and him and let him do his work :) Easier said than done but its gotta get fixed! Unsurprisingly, the drifting stopped almost completely once I was sitting centered.

Last interesting point on the things to fix, Reggie doesn’t like low hands. This kinda surprised me ‘cause I don’t usually ride with my hands low. However, I had been trying to keep him on the correct track by being more in his mouth than I should have been. It becomes so habitual because in those beginning stages where he didn’t know leg or seat aids, all you had was the bridle. However, Reg is beyond those stages now and I need to retrain myself on how I need to ride him. Surprising how, often its the rider who needs training and not the horse :P He was also ready to move out of the full cheek snaffle and into the egg butt which is great! The full cheek (single joint) has gotten too strong for him and he’s beginning to sit behind the bridle rather than going too the bridle. I much prefer the double joint to the single so I was happy I got the all clear to move on lol He’s got a very soft mouth, so the gentler and stiller I can keep the bit all the better in Reggie’s mind and I tend to agree :)

Now to the stuff we learned, of which there was a lot. First point of address, sit properly, which I think is fairly self explanatory. Next was establishing a better contact. Not as in getting Reg on the bit, but me sorting my hands out. I tended to hold them low and out when I needed to ‘steer’ and lock through the elbows which was making everything jarring instead of smooth. Again, relatively easy fix when I’m thinking about it. Carry hands higher/further up his neck and think soft elbows constantly. Eventually it will become muscle memory. I hope....

Reggie was much happier once we got all that sorted. I’m lucky in the fact he does ride out to the bridle relatively well, so long as I’ve got myself in order. Practiced some refined steering as well, again to help with the hand thing. Young horses don’t lie and are brutally honest when it comes to how you sit. Luckily, that can be turned into another turning aid. Was lots of fun doing circles and figures of eights just by weighting your toes, but it was a bugger to get since I’d gotten into the habit of sitting unevenly and relying on my hands. This is part and parcel in developing straightness. To have a horse listening to where your balance is leading them, a lot of other movements suddenly become a lot easier. As the concept is developed more, correct bend can be established without even moving the bit. It can be very ugly in the beginning stages, but then, what isn’t?

Last of the exercises done today was stride length within a gait. As I mentioned before, Reggie was not at all forward. Yeah he could speed up, but he wasn’t forward. Furthermore, he was sluggish to respond when asked to move out or come back. He likes to pin his ears and screw his nose up when asked to move out, its actually very funny to look at. And contrastly, even though he wasn’t quick when asked to change his ‘speed’ if I got after him too much with my leg, he would suck back more rather than move out. So, instead swing with the seat and if no response, flick with the whip, all the while keeping hands forward, up and together. Bringing him back was also challenging, but in a slightly different way- he liked to loose all energy and stop.. Not the point of the exercise Reg :/ Again, little tap with the whip the first few times, just so he knows a half-halt doesn’t mean a full halt lol

This particular exercise is rather interesting because you want the horse to begin to anticipate the change in pace. The idea is that the horse should always be waiting to be pushed on or brought back, thus keeping their hind legs under. That is, its really beginning to teach collection in its most basic form. Requires thinking on horse and rider’s part, without being overly physical. Plus, you can practice it anywhere, even on the trail with ease ;) It can take a little while for the idea to click though. I was surprised Reggie managed to pick it up as well as he did. Seriously, if you can get this exercise right, even if only for a few strides, you’ll feel like you’re floating. Like Reggie’s stride felt like it just about doubled because all of a sudden he’d taken a little more weight behind and his shoulder was free to swing forward and extend rather than just poking the ground. He thought it was very cool and fancy and was a little bit of a show off, almost plopping into a passage when we got him to shorten up before he decided that was too hard lol Lotta personality that horse. But this is definitely an exercise I will be practicing more regularly even if in small bursts. If I can get the truly forward trot more often, its only gonna help strengthen him and improve his natural way of going. Being a clydie cross, Reggie is naturally quite short in front and likes the bring the front legs up rather than reaching forward and carrying the energy from his hind. Luckily, he’s got a pretty good engine on him and naturally has a fairly soft swinging back. Lifting the front and carrying the energy is however more difficult for him than for my warmblood mare. With more of this type of exercise and more time, this should improve that and then we’re cooking with gas! Might make a dressage horse out of him yet
